I got to meet my nephew JJ,
for the 1st time today.  :)

He is nearly 3 weeks old.

No, I didn't take these photos.
I stole them off someone's facebook.

I spent all day with my guy.

Sometimes I call him ocean eyes.


My ocean based, art journal pages

quotes from The Little Mermaid by Hans Christian Andersen

It says:
Far at sea the water is as blue as the bluest cornflower and as clear as the clearest crystal, but it is very deep, too deep for any cable to fathom, and if many steeples were piled on the top of one  other they would not reach from the bed of the sea to the surface of the water. It is down there where the mermen live. from The Little Mermaid by Hans Christian Andersen

These pink things delight me.

I get to see my twin nieces in 5 days.

How cute are they?

My niece EJ likes apples.

My friend's sister & her son.

More of my friends

And where was I? Behind the camera. I didn't realize there weren't any photos of me, until I got home.

 You know what I look like already, anyway.
I mean this blog is full of photos of me.
Maybe you need a little break of that, right? ;)

Another Art Journal page

It says: My crafty obsessions
 are paint and pens.

Hope you have a delightful weekend!

for eva

Eva from Runaway Thrift tagged me with some questions & answers. So here goes...

 I dream of living near the ocean & mountains.

Me in Corpus Christi in 2008.

Another shot of me in Corpus Christi in 2008.

My dream is teach art to kids by day,
be a super hero with magical healing powers,
& rock star capabilities at night. 

My favorite animal is a bear.

My favorite pet is my guy. 
Just Kidding. ;)
My favorite pet is probably a dog.

My favorite holiday is Halloween!

My nieces as monkeys on their 1st Halloween.

My nephew as Yoda on his 1st Halloween.

Yesterday I worked on art.

It says: "Art enables us to find ourselves
and lose ourselves at the same time." -Thomas Merton

I would describe myself as:
outgoing, creative, sensitive,
kind, & silly.

This was me last Sunday.
Excuse the windblown hair.

I wish I owned these 4 outfits.

I don't know have a best day of the week, because too many factors determine whether something is a good day or not.

This was a good day at Austin City Limits in 2008.
I'm in the hot pink tank top.

On that day we watched Jack White play guitar
& sing with his band The Raconteurs.

On that day, we also got to make & look at art.

My celebrity crush is Johnny Rzeznik.

From when we saw Goo Goo Dolls concert
 in 2010.

 This song describes my day because
I drove through major rainstorm due
to tornadoes. Yes, I heard tornado sirens.
Yes, I'm fine.

This is the last song I learned on my guitar.

My most embarrassing moments in 3 words are:
any accidental flashing.

elements of blue & orange

Just pretend like every photo here has
 orange & blue in it, even if it doesn't.

My twin nieces in their princess tent.

Their blanket is
made of orange, with blue in it.

Orange & blue on my nieces' toy car.

How many pairs of sunglasses
 does my nephew own?

I wonder if he was getting ready to go to his room.

I think this photo of him is funny,
because he looks so serious. 

My art journal pages that say,
"Choose to look beyond what's written."

Close up page right.

This is me dressed up as a 3 yr. old scarecrow.

Me & my brother dressed as Raggedy Ann,
and Raggedy Andy, for his 1st Halloween.

I think I'm 4 yrs. old in this photo.

I think this the 1st Halloween I got dressed up.

I just realized in both my costumes, my hair is fake.

No wonder I started coloring my hair in 6th grade.
I'm pretty sure I begged my mother.
